    M1101 and F150 successful recovery

    Get one to match your Hummer & it will be a plug n play like it's supposed to be, not like the rest of us having to convert everything to make it work street legal.

    Deuce Multi-fuel crankcase full of fuel - please advise over

    On the bright side, you (your buddy) has a cleaner engine interior & crankcase. Fix the leak when you find it, keep your eye on the oil level before driving it & you may find no damage other than more than normal oil changes. If you burn used motor oil, filter the drainings & pour them in the...

    M1101 Trailer axle question

    Change the tire size is all that folks do with it now. It's pretty much fixed other than adding weight to it & that is temporary!

    My first military vehicle. M923A1

    I used to dislike tan very much, but after a tan truck & a few tan trailers; it starts to grow on you. Here in Florida, tan is much cooler during the hot summer months, so I will probably continue the tan trend in vehicular equipment. A tan M923A2 would fit in the herd really well this year....

    M923A2 Recovery from Barstow 485 Miles to home

    Yep, your canvas is installed inside out on the truck. The vents are reversed & the tie downs on on the wrong side. @ least the wind didn't get behind the front folds & rip the top into pieces or completely off. You still did very well on the purchase & recovery of the truck & trailer combo...

    M923A2 Recovery from Barstow 485 Miles to home

    Very good write up & pictures, glad you were able to overcome all the junk that Murphy threw @ you. You must have spent some quality time with the TM's to be able to get all the gremlins thrown out the window & left on the road. Welcome aboard & you have passed your indoctrination test.

    Good luck on your recovery, you didn't mention what type of trailer you were picking up so I can't give any pointers as to what you need to do or look for. Keep us posted as to how it goes.

    Anyone picked up from pineville recently

    Whenever I go to do a loadout, the paperwork is always done in triplicate, in case there are such problems as these mentioned. If you have too much paperwork, no sweat; if there is not the required paperwork to get your stuff signed out & released...another trip may be in order for another day...
